DLR - Flounder - T-Shirt - Hidden Mickey 2011 - Wave B - S

This charming pin features Flounder, the loyal and lovable tropical fish sidekick from Disney's 1989 animated classic, The Little Mermaid. The design is unique, shaped like a miniature t-shirt with a light blue collar and sleeves, showcasing a prominent portrait of Flounder's face on the front. A small Hidden Mickey icon is visible on the left sleeve, identifying this piece as part of the 2011 Hidden Mickey pin series released at the Disneyland Resort. This specific pin was part of 'Wave B,' which was a highly sought-after collection for traders and completists during that year. Flounder remains one of the most recognizable and beloved supporting characters in the Disney canon, often appearing alongside Ariel in merchandise. Because these pins were primarily obtained through the Cast Member pin trading program or as mystery pack components, they hold a special place in the hearts of long-time collectors who frequented the parks during that era. The simple, clean aesthetic of the t-shirt design makes it a fun and distinct addition to any aquatic or character-focused collection. Collectors value this piece not only for its character appeal but also for its status as a classic park-exclusive release from the early 2010s.
